It's that time of year again..Halloween! This past weekend we had our annual Halloween party. We enjoyed some traditional spooky treats that I make every year, and each year I try something new. This year it was a Candy Corn Punch. Look how cool this is! It tastes fantastic too. Simple ingredients make this taste just like a creamsicle! It is made with orange soda, nectar and cream. It looked great and tasted yummy too. I think it tasted much like an orange creamsicle
This Candy Corn Punch recipe is from Better Homes and Garden. I followed the recipe exactly with one exception, I used canned whipped cream instead of making my own.
Make this for Halloween or Thanksgiving. Your family and guests will love it!
